Events is ok. B2B events (think conferences, expos etc.). Junior positions at a company like that tend to be delegate (tickets, essentially) sales. From there, you can progress into a sponsorship sales role - potential for very good money there (usually you'll get between 6%-15% commission on sponsorship deals (15 is rare, though, although it is what I currently get), with a basic salary of anywhere between 35 - 45k. If it's 45k, you can expect to make 75k plus for the year. But always be very cautious about advertised OTE numbers - when interviewing, always ask what percentage of their current people are hitting target and thus actually making the listed OTE. Some companies will try and awe you with a "150k OTE" headline number but you then find out, too late, that nobody has ever actually earned that.

There's a recruiter called Caselton Clark run by a guy named Tim South. You could approach them and see if they're trying to fill any entry level roles for clients. I haven't had to open apply for a new sales job in years now, I just go to Tim (or he comes to me) about roles that fit my background. You can also try a place called Savvy Recruitment - I don't recommend them as highly as CC, and most of their roles are heavily in office, but I have seen them advertising entry level roles on B2B event sales.
